Comment(by lal22@…):

 This is caused by lacking dependencies in the Portfile. It should help to
 install py25-gnome and py26-gnome. (Sorry, I do not know which of the two
 really does it.) Afterwards gnome-python-desktop can be installed - but it
 must be *reconfigured*. (I.e. make a "port clear gnome-python-desktop".)

 The problem is caused by the parameters "--register /gconf.defs", which is
 executed by the Makefile. (The file "/gconf.defs" does not exist.) If the
 python bindings for gnome are missing, the configuration fails to provide
 a useful path for gconf.defs.
